The 31-year-old tragically passed away after suffering catastrophic injuries when falling from the third floor of his hotel in Buenos Aires on Wednesday. Simon, 64, mentored One Direction during their time on The X Factor and on Friday evening he issued a heartfelt tribute on his Instagram page.
"This is is so difficult to put into words right now. I went outside today, and I though about so many times we had together. I wanted to let you know what I would always say to the thousands of people who would always ask me. What is Liam like? After One Direction - which included Liam, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Harry Styles and Zayn Malik - finished in third place on the show, Simon subsequently signed the five-piece to his record label, Syco. The band have sold over 70 million records worldwide since catapulting to global fame thanks to their boyish personalities and infectious music.
Police, firefighters and ambulances were seen outside of a hotel building after Liam tragically fell. Police are said to have been called to reports of a man acting aggressively at the hotel who could be under the effect of drink or drugs.
